Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 1, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how heartbreakers-ca.com ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects personal information from visitors to this website. We operate as an informational affiliate site. We do not operate a casino, process payments, or hold player accounts. We comply with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy laws in Canada.

Who We Are

heartbreakers-ca.com is an independent informational website providing game guides, reviews, and general information about casino games. We link to third-party licensed gambling operators through affiliate relationships. We are not a gambling operator and are not licensed by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) or any other gambling regulatory body.

What Information We Collect

We collect two categories of information: information you give us directly, and information collected automatically when you visit the site.

Contact information (name, email address) if you submit a contact form or subscribe to updates
IP address and general location data (country, province)
Browser type, device type, and operating system
Pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs
Cookie identifiers and similar tracking data (see our Cookie Policy for details)

We do not collect financial information, payment card details, or government-issued identification. We have no access to any account or wagering data held by third-party operators.

Why We Collect It

We use the information we collect to operate and improve the site, understand how visitors use our content, comply with legal obligations, and track affiliate referrals to third-party operators. Affiliate tracking is necessary for us to earn revenue that keeps this site running. When you click a link to a third-party operator, that operator may set their own cookies and collect their own data under their own privacy policy.

Legal Basis and Your Consent

Under PIPEDA, we rely on your implied or express consent to collect and use personal information. By using this site, you consent to the practices described in this policy. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us, though this may limit your ability to use certain features of the site.

How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with the following categories of third parties:

Analytics providers (such as Google Analytics) to help us understand site traffic
Affiliate network platforms that track referral clicks to operator sites
Hosting and infrastructure providers who process data on our behalf
Law enforcement or regulatory authorities if required by law

All third-party service providers are required to handle your data securely and only for the purposes we specify.

Data Retention

We retain contact form submissions for up to 24 months. Analytics and log data is typically retained for 14 months before being aggregated or deleted. You can request deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting us.

Your Rights Under PIPEDA

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, to correct inaccurate information, to withdraw consent to our use of your data, and to file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada if you believe we have mishandled your information. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the email address below.

Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational steps to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or loss. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children

This site is intended for adults aged 19 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 19. If you believe a minor has submitted information to us, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

Links to Third-Party Sites

This site contains links to third-party gambling operators and other websites. Once you leave our site, this Privacy Policy no longer applies. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any site you visit.
